Place to go? (lemmy.world)

Now that the /r/usenet mods essentially killed off the community without creating an 'official' backup community I wonder where to go? This seems like the lemmy community with the most subscribers at least. Or are there any other places around?

Thankfully archive.org has fairly recent copies of all the information in the wiki.

i am sure the usenet sub will be back but they really half assed it when they closed it. did they give like 8 hours notice? ironically usenet is the best place to go. this whole fediverse thing is like trying to recreate the wheel when you have usenet here already ready for the discussions. not sure if the masses could handle it though since there are no good apps.

there is a squabbles https://squabbles.io/s/usenet and a kbin https://kbin.social/m/usenet Seems like things are just fracturing so much though especially for a small sub like r/usenet
